Summus 2014 Sant'Antimo IGT Toscana Banfi

Summus 2014 Sant'Antimo IGT Toscana Banfi is a Supertuscan with a strong personality, born from the meeting of Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Syrah. A Tuscan red of great character, produced by Banfi only in the most favorable vintages, designed for those seeking an important, structured wine capable of expressing territory, balance, and contemporary flair.

Territory and wine style

The grapes come from owned vineyards located in the hilly area on the southern slope of the Municipality of Montalcino, a vocated area that gives the wine depth and tension. The Sant'Antimo IGT Toscana designation allows Banfi to interpret the territory with greater stylistic freedom, creating a blend that combines Tuscan identity with international appeal. The result is a rich, complex, and balanced red, where the structure of Sangiovese interacts with the maturity of Cabernet Sauvignon and the spiciness of Syrah.

Tasting notes

On the nose, it offers mature and articulated aromas, with fruity sensations, spices, and more evolved nuances linked to aging in wood. On the palate, it shows body, balance, and a good tannic presence, supported by a freshness that lengthens the sip. The soft component integrates decisively with the structure, while the finish tends to be persistent and harmonious, with an elegant yet authoritative profile.

Recommended pairings
